All you need is the home kit and a set of speakers, really. The kit has its own amplification (like an iPhone), so as long as you can plug in speakers to a headphone sized jack, you are good to go. I plugged in a 3.5mm bluetooth transmitter and send it over to my bluetooth speakers and it sounds great.

In order to use it at home, you would need the Onyx Plus radio and the XM Universal Home Kit. The home kit plugs into an existing audio system in your home using RCA or AUX cables. It also comes with a home antenna that needs to be run close to a window, preferably south facing.

Yes, it merely plugs in to an auxiliary jack on the Bose radio and it has it's own antenna to receive the satellite signal.

I already have a annual vehicle account with Sirius Radio. If I purchase the home kit do I need another Sirius account? Will the home kit pick up my current account?

I want a device for my home that will allow me to listen to either SiriusXM radio or FM radio, so that I can go back and forth between my favorite satellite stations and FM public radio stations. Will this do it? Or is there such a thing?

Sirius is very vague about this. I have my home Sirius receiver set up so that I get the Met pera channel 355. It took many calls t find a technician at Sirius who could help.

Yes buy a home dock kit and take the SiriusXM Onyx Receiver ( from one of your cars) and plug it into your home dock once you park your car. If your only driving one car at a time, you can just have one subscription and move the Receiver between each of the other docks.

Sorry, but not that I am aware of. You can take a home subscription and use the app to stream Sirius/XM though.

Reception for the receiver is based upon the antenna attached.
You would have to place your antenna close to a window to insure the best reception. But, it could still work depending on how much concrete and wall thickness the antenna has to fight to get clear reception.

Existing subscription?

Hello, I can add this to my existing subscription, correct? I will not be required to have a 2nd subscription package? I would think you'd only have to pay once for the content, but one reviewer seemed to indicate that wasn't the case.

You can use ear phones with the home/car kit. As for dialysis center, you might have a tough time if there isn't a window facing outside with a clear view. It needs a satellite signal. That being said, you CAN get this ... keep it at home and/or in car, and pay for the Internet add-on service (Like $4-5 a month on top of your normal subscription) and stream all the channels (and a lot more) on an iphone/roku/android, etc.

You can use head phones if you buy an XM home kit and then plug the head phones into the home dock. I'm not sure how to respond to the second question as it all depends but if there is a window close by that you can run the antenna to, it may work.
